French Navy Huxley Dungarees

Buy the Huxley Dungarees sewing pattern from French Navy. A new take on the classic dungaree, Huxley sports the traditional features of five pockets, side button plackets and adjustable shoulder straps. The fit is slim through the hip with a straight leg that tapers slightly towards the hem and a relaxed mid-rise waistband that is breathable in summer and great for layering sweaters in colder months. The result is a modern, versatile silhouette that is suitable for styling across all seasons.
